Turning the 33 into a full or partial tunnel would be a far worse generational blunder than anything they might do with a Bills stadium

The funny part is that I really don't think Schumer or Democratic leadership wanted her to give up the game so blatantly by straight up endorsing the Republican and are probably furious about this Lobby-backed kamikaze op on their point shaving scheme
Let's be clear what happened: Having tried & failed to use $30 million of AIPAC money to get voters to reject Abdul, Haley Stevens' Plan B was: threaten to sabotage the general unless Abdul "moderated" on Israel. He declined to be threatened, so she pressed the nuclear button.

The Erie County Sheriff's Office would like to thank @GuyFieri for joining us during our briefing prior to today's Buffalo Bills game. We deeply appreciate his support of our efforts to keep the stadium and our community safe, as well as his support of law enforcement nationwide.

Kids don’t knock on doors for trick or treat now? They won’t try to trick or treat if there isn’t a person on the porch handing stuff out?

New York does not have universal child care or even universal pre-K. This is a lie.
Happy Halloween, New York! 🎃 Plenty of tricks coming out of Washington, but here in New York, we’re delivering for you.

It used to be that everyone criticizing Israel was badly-informed and so shouldn't say anything, but now everybody criticizing Israel knows too much and so shouldn't say anything nitter.cf/infolibnews/status/211…
NYT's Bret Stephens whines that Democrats know "Smotrich and Ben-Gvir" but not "the interior minister of Japan." Their "obsession" with Israel drives him "crazy." (Being politically informed on Israel is now anti-Semitic.)

I like Ryan Gosling’s twee Halloween indie rock concept album, though I think the more stripped down demos he posted to MySpace were better versions of the songs
Are there any actors who have ever actually put out good music?

I don’t want to speak to any one model because on crazy complex BAAJA, a model will spit out whatever you want based on various plausible assumptions. Rather, I want to warn of a dynamic: the clean energy industry and the public’s interest are not the same thing. A few things🧵
Scoop in @PunchbowlNews PM: @SEIA and other clean energy trades today briefed Dem staff from ENR and EPW committees (including down dais) on the bipartisan permitting bill. SEIA presented preliminary analysis showing BAAJA's potential for more solar deployment, emissions cuts

But members are concerned that the trusteeship was a nuclear option to address what they consider to be an internal financial matter. And they worry it's torn apart relationships at the local, weakened opposition to management’s schemes, and undermined democratic processes 2/3

We have an article coming soon touching this, but one notable set of donations here are from Terry & Kim Pegula, billionaire GOP donors who have sat out NYS politics for several years but maxed to Hochul & NYS Dems in 2026 as they seek more subsidies for the Buffalo Sabres arena
The NYS Democratic Committee transferred another $6.5 million to Kathy Hochul this month, new filing shows—bringing its support to $16.5M total. This has been a useful setup for Hochul, since the party can take donations of up to $138,600 from individuals vs. $9K for candidates

One very small example I noticed is that the Wikipedia page for the “50 States One Israel” conference where Israel sponsored Democrat and Republican state legislators to visit Israel during the genocide last year was repeatedly edited to remove the names of the lawmakers who went
“We’ve built software to track Wikipedia editors,” says the head of the ADL. We have an investigation publishing soon about pro-Israel manipulation of Wikipedia, and he just blurts it out

Joined a class action suit against Blue Cross Blue Shield for ripping us off on health insurance. Settlement was <$10. Forced to accept prepaid debit card to receive settlement. Bank that runs prepaid card declines every transaction attempt with it. America #1
